How many American actors and Democrat politicians praised Hugo Chavez? Many.

Unless they swim to Chula Vista they are going to have a hard time getting to the US. No airline is accepting Bolivars as payment anymore. American has something like US $300MM tied up in unrepatriable funds from VZ.

The oil price is partially true but in fact VZ produces a high sulphur content oil that is difficult to refine and nobody wants.

>what is the alternative?...seriously..

Monarchy is much better system for those who cannot govern themselves. Most of Latin America’s problems could be fixed by having local lords who govern thier poor people effectively.

Globalists are looking on with anticipation. They are really waiting for America to do the same then they can easily put the world under one “big brother” umbrella. Americans will then truly miss our “One Nation Under God.”

Honestly just about anything would be more sane that what we have going on now.

Just look at how bad it is, we have an open criminal winning half the votes--someone who literally stole her candidacy and used her high status position to line her bank account.

A lottery system would be preferable to this.

Another thought, I have seen man on the strret interviews in Venezuala where they interview people in line for toilet paper.

They ARE STILL frothing and chomping at the bit to go after "the rich".

So, the theory that it'll get so bad, they'll come to their senses does not prevail. Ever.

"The oil price is partially true but in fact VZ produces a high sulphur content oil that is difficult to refine and nobody wants."

I've read that the only refinery in the world that can process this oil is in the US.
